Give the People What They Want: Five Super (Un)Couples
Posted by Featherlite on August 10th, 2009

Television writers walk a fine line when they have leads with chemistry.  The banter flows with ease and what's not spoken can be a joy to behold.   But what should they do with all that sexual tension?  On one hand, fans continuously clamor for the duo to get together.  On the other, the audience has no reason to tune in after they do.

Fans say that the couple deserves to live happily-ever-after but the truth is a little more complex. …

Burn Notice Recap 3.9 "Long Way Back"
Posted by Everyn on August 6th, 2009

Well, we’ve made it to the mid-season finale together.  I’m so proud of us!  I’m going to fight off the tears for my beloved John Hughes and we’ll do our best to make this the best Burn Notice finale ever!

Oooh!  We get a previously!  That’s rare.  It mostly highlights Strickler, what a slimeball he is, how easily Michael has slipped into his web, and how Fiona unceremoniously left Michael last week.  We’re loyal fans, so we already know this,…

Interview: Bruce Campbell & Sharon Gless of "Burn Notice"
Posted by Bryan Jones on August 6th, 2009

The first half of Burn Notice's third season has been funny, gripping, action-packed…can I just say its been awesome and call it good?  Its amazing how this series seems to get better and better every season, and I'm not the only one who thinks so.  This summer Burn Notice has been breaking USA Network's ratings records left and right, and has been out performing network television shows in certain demographics as well, a feat that should never be taken lightly for…

Burn Notice Recap 3.8 – Friends Like These
Posted by Everyn on July 30th, 2009

We hop right into the action this week.  Michael prepares for a mission.  “An operation is more likely to be saved by a fresh set of batteries than a gun.”  Fiona packs the batteries in a camera while Michael loads his gun.  Apparently they’re hedging their bets on the batteries.  Fiona answers the door to find Strickler, “Michael’s Ticket Back In.”  Fiona tries to convince Michael not to go with him, to no avail.

Strickler and Michael park our awesome…

Burn Notice Recap 3.7 "Shot in the Dark"
Posted by Everyn on July 23rd, 2009

I had totally forgotten that Michael’s loft was right above a popular night club. Fiona and Mike walk past the waiting wannabes at the club’s door. Michael’s voiceover isn’t much into nightclubs, since they can damage you hearing. Wow…he’s such an old man! “You can hear the music through the floor, Sam’s got beer in the fridge, knock yourself out.” As Michael approaches his stairway, a sultry blonde welcomes them with a gift basket of lotions “from a friend.” She even offers to apply them. Fiona doesn’t seem pleased. Michael turns down the offer, and assumes the gift is from a recruiter.

As the television premiere season approaches, it’s time to start thinking about which new shows to start watching.

Burn Notice Recap 3.6 "The Hunter"
Posted by Everyn on July 16th, 2009

Are spies a bunch of bitchy little girls?  Let’s find out.  Our opening montage is Fi beating the crap out of Michael while training.  She seems to not be fine with Michael’s career decisions, despite her promise of support.  Michael winces as she pummels the pads he’s holding.  She only weights 70lbs, so I think Michael is INDEED a bitchy little girl.  Glad to have that question answered so quickly.  Michael hears a knock on his door and steps…

Burn Notice Recap 3.5 "Signals and Codes"
Posted by Everyn on July 9th, 2009

Welcome back, my fellow burned spies and trigger happy ex-girlfriends.  Did you miss me?  I missed you!  This week, Michael and Sam sit in Mike’s car while they watch planes take off and land.  Wow, that sounds like a blast!  Michael’s voice-over complains about how all of his former confidants and handlers don’t take his calls anymore since he was burned.  They won’t even follow him on Twitter.  How sad.  The goal of all this flight watching is to…

Burn Notice Recap 3.4 "Fearless Leader"
Posted by Everyn on June 25th, 2009

No yogurt for me tonight, so let's kick it right into gear.  Michael Westen’s voiceover informs us to lay out a plan of action before anything starts.  Mommy and Daddy shouldn’t fight in front of the mark, after all.  Fi and Michael pull up in front of a Miami home to do a little bounty hunting.  Michael’s hoping to use the extra cash to bribe his way back into his old job.  Fi would…rather spend it on drugs?  Really? …

Burn Notice Recap 3.3 "End Run"
Posted by Everyn on June 19th, 2009

The Miami beat of hot Latin flavor welcomes us to another episode of Burn Notice.  I crack open a yogurt to share with Michael Weston while he reads the paper.  When someone knocks on my door, my dogs bark and my toddler cries.  When someone knocks on Michael's door?  He brings his gun and advises us to keep our room clean of evidence.  The voice behind the door threatens to be the police, but I recognize that voice.  Hi Nate! …
